God After All

by Kelly Elliott

Lord my heart is one big scab.
It has become heavy as a stone.
I would lift it up to You if I could,
And place it at the foot of Your throne.

But alone it's more than I can bear
So I hold it and pick at it till it bleeds.
I look for earthly things to heal it;
Whatever I apply, infection still breeds.

I almost put it in Your hands one day.
While on my way.... it started bleeding,
I stopped and tried to fix it
But my relief was only fleeting.

Why won't You take it from me,
And heal my wounded heart.....
You're God after all.

As your Beloved Physician, I beg you for your trust.
Nothing is too hard for Me, but you first... must give it up.
I AM GOD...after all
